I am referring to Autostarts. If you don't have much installed to begin with you probably won't see a big difference..

But if you are like me and you have 200+ apps installed, a lot of them like to open randomly for no apparent reason, this is what Autostarts can prevent.

Battery Life

The problem with comparing battery life between users is that habits can be SO different. I for example do not use my phone very much. I am an IT pro and I must have it on me at all times to get server alerts but I don't make many calls and only play games a little. I leave WiFi on all the time since I have it at home and the office. My usage profile will not match someone else so we don't have a common frame of reference to discuss.

I can tell you that with no tweaks at all my battery life on CM7 is the best I have EVER had on my EPIC. Well over 2.5 days of battery life. Now I did buy the Epic Touch 1800mah battery a little while back so that helps too. However when looking at the picture below there is at least another 4 hours not shown (I plugged it in to flash a nightly and the stats reset). That means I really got 2 days, 16+ hours. I did make and get a few calls and I played Flick golf twice while waiting for my kids :)

As for apps like juice defender, I used to live in a house where I had crappy Sprint coverage and Juice defender helped a lot. But if you have good solid signal then I find it does not help much.

I do use autorun manager from the market and disable apps that try and start on their own that really don't need to. That helps a ton too.

Other than that I am on stock CM7. No overclocking, kernels or tweaks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bender beerman:
u had wifi on the whole time? jeezus!!! that just straight drains my battery. i guess i just haven't flashed a nightly in a week or so O.o i'm holding out for tonite's, that call vol. fix is enticing :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] cornaljoe:
Same... I only get about 8 hours off a full battery if I leave my wifi on. Even with little use. That does seem pretty amazing. What nighty are you on?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rprockey:
I believe tonight's volume fix is to make the keys work when the screen is off. I fixed this manually on my phone and calls still start at max volume until a volume key is pressed. I think the max volume problem is not resolved in nightly 16 unless the devs squeeze something in real quick. Wouldn't put it past them.

[Epic 4G Android Development] bigray327:
Maybe that's why it froze and rebooted for me, since I have bluetooth on all the time. I've already been back and forth twice, not gonna experiment any more.

FWIW, a buddy had the same exact results as me.

I am not seeing 4g on nightly 16. Setting isn't even there. I think I am going to have to try flashing this without after wiping my data. I am not having any problems or reboots from it, just seems some thibs are missing.

Ok I think I must have flashed an old file by mistake. Bluetooth borking my phone now to but the other things are back to normal.

[Epic 4G Android Development] sinman02:
I've been having issues with wifi not allowing the phone to sleep since nightly 15... I've gone into wireless/wifi settings/advanced/wifi sleep policy and set it to sleep when the screen goes off. I've also made sure the wifi sleep policy is the same in spare parts as well. I've verified this behavior in spare parts, cpu spy and better battery stats. I've been getting only about 8-9hrs from full charge.

I'm also getting the bluetooth issue with nightly 16 so I'm going back to nightly 14 to see if it corrects the issues.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mrcollpepper:
Do you mean one of the nightlys? If you are on rco now and want an updated one, just wipe cache and dalvik cache and flash the nightly #? >profit

It would be the same to go from old rco to new rco

No, right now i put the md5sum: ddb0c474d8fbf2e8711938b903f7ce0b update-cm7.2.0-RC0-Epic-WiMAX-signed.zip on my sd card.. went on ACS recovery and tried to flash it but it didnt appear?!
[Epic 4G Android Development] mrcollpepper:
You can't use acsrecovery with mtd, it doesn't play well and I am not sure if this rom converts it to cwm5. I used marcusants v2 when I switched to mtd. Either way if you wipe data, wipe cache, and wipe delvic cache and then flash and it doesn't appear work I am at a loss

Edit....how big was your download, I remeber I first downloaded a small update that wasn't the rom first, luckily I caught it before the flash, but check that and maybe you have a bad download, so you could try a new download

Hey guys new Epic user here, I am running CM7 nightly 16 with KernelSanders and my wifi link speeds are horrible, I am getting anywhere from 6Mbps-32Mbps and this is with 2 different networks and they are both b/g/n routers. I have tried secured and unsecured and no change and I am at a loss on what to do. Can anyone help me out?

Same results with the stock kernel and stock rom as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] iamchocho:
If your on a different kernel first flash back to stock cm7 with stock kernel and see if its still an issue otherwise you won't get any help here since your not on stock cm7...

Also you can check the thread for that kernel to see if others have the issue running it.

Edit: oops, sorry. I aparently missed the last statement you had the issue on stock also. How are you "testing" your wifi link speed?

I'm getting 11mbps on my N router based on the stats under the wifi menu. Considering I only have 9Mbps inet service I'm not too bothered by it atm.

I'm referring to the link speed no the download speed. If you go under settings and click on your current network it will show you the link speed. If I remember correctly 19mbps is (b) 54mbps is (g) and ~300 is (n) so based on that it's like my phone is always running in (b) mode.

Our chipset won't connect at 300. That's 2x2 40mhz devices only. Our devices are only 1x1 20mhz which the highest air rate is 72 megabit...it might even be 65 megabit depending on the guard interval used. Which air rate and actual tcp throughput are totally different.

You can't flash the EI22 modem while on MTD. That zip file was designed for BML.

Best way is probably making a nandroid, use Odin back to EC05, root, etc. Then flash the EC05toEI22.zip to upgrade your modem.

After that, flash CM7 to convert back to MTD and restore your nandroid.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this is how it has to be done.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nashdogg:
You will have to Odin back to ec05 rom,root, OTA update to gingerbread or flash a tw.bml rom via cwm5. Then flash ec05 to ei22. Zip found in xda forums before moving to mtd. That zip file wont flash once you are on mtd.

*For anyone having bluetooth issues*

Move your ROM zip and your kernel if you use an alternative out of your download folder or out of any folder it may be in. Reflash your ROM (wipe data , cache, and dalvik ) then flash ur kernel. Boot up and try bluetooth it should work and not slug you down. If necessary you can advance restore your data from the previous nightly

[Epic 4G Android Development] jbadboy2007:
Wonderful answer and I will also confirm this and I do believe 72 mbps is max link but I usually only see 65mbps and the link speed will reflect when you originally connect so if you are close and using "n" then you will have link speed of 65mbps it won't change by just moving further away you have to disconnect then reconnect being further away you will see the diminshed link speed of 19mbps or whatever. For some one that said these speeds in regards to internet speeds that's not why we care about these speeds. The reason why we care about these speeds is for transferring files to a pc over wifi. This link speed directly impacts the speed of these transfers.
[Epic 4G Android Development] digiblur:
Wifi speeds will auto negotiate as the signal degrades or improves. I can watch them change on my router device list as devices use data and move around.

How are you testing the wifi speed though? Your router could theoretically top out at 599 GBps, if you have a 5 Mbit DSL, that's all you're getting, and fluctuation is normal.

When you are transferring files across your lan the wan speed plays no role and we have been discussing lan speed. So then as long as 2 pc's have nic cards of 599gbps and a router or switch capable of 599gbps then those 2 pc's can transfer files at 599gbps to each other.
